Summary | Contemporary childhood is strongly influenced by new media. Many children get a smartphone from an early age and spend their free time in group chats where they can talk to their friends unsupervised by parents. Many schools already integrade new technologies into their classes. Children also have a harder time learning about the value of money because so much is paid for digitally. Parents need to talk to their children about the dangers lurking from strangers online.

Summary | Selfies are the quintessential symbol of contemporary society. Selfies are less for remembrance like holidasy photos used to be but for instant communication - to let someone know how one feels, where one is, and what one is doing. The expression of emotions through selfies adopts the function of emojis but in a personalized way. Some people opt for reproducing trends such as the duckface while others strive towards originality. Snapchat is very popular because it is short-lived and there is less pressure to be perfect which is commonly known about selfies otherwise.
